Where the hell is the ammo?

I have been on the search for some good priced .223 and cannot find anything. First stop WalMart. Yay 5.25 a box for Tula. Out of stock. Gun show! $12 a box for Tula. Really. Brass twice that. Internet is disappointing me also at $7.20 a box of wolf and $7 a box of wolf brass (if you buy a thousand)

We actually had almost all the Handgun calibers in Our Wally for about a week or so,..now it's back to just Shotgun & Long gun ammo again. I "bit the Bullet" and Ordered(back Ordered!) 2 more Bricks of Federal Auto Match 22's, and 2/ 100 Rd Boxes of Remington Yellow Jackets and 2 100 Rd. Boxes of CCI Mini Mag RN's, all at a reasonable Price...but still almost nothing here locally on the shelves except at the Gougers' LGS...

Is this the Wal-Mart in Cottonwood? They are so random in the ammo they get, and it goes pretty quickly. Except for the shotgun and .30-06, they seem to have a fair amount of this.

Didn't know you were in the Area. No,..I have only gotten ANY ammo there at all about 10 Days ago, and that was the first time in over a year. When they get it in It goes Almost Instantly, and I'm not getting up at 5 am to go stand in line with the employees of the LGS who buy it to mark it up to 3 X the cost... If I go to the one in Prescott, at least the stock is better..at least at BIG 5 they order and It's not sold out all the time..

That's true, and we usually take several pistols and a couple of rifles when we go out shooting. Trouble is, I'm not finding anything to replace what we shoot. There's some to be found online but I refuse to be robbed.

Agree. Not all the Online vendors are Gouging customers either...Thats why we have the 'Net,..so we can search...One of the things we will discuss on the next podcast: If the industry wants us to "believe" that the shortage is over, then why are the prices still High in so many places?

I am not going to pay $25 for 550. I was digging in the barn today. I found four 550 federal bulk boxes stuck in my old toolbox. I have plenty of fresh ammo too. I wish I could have found a receipt or a price tag. I haven't used that toolbox in over 3 years.
